What about a strictly "realistic" system -- something like d20 Modern, or some version of Traveller without any psionics.  No magic, no powers, no psychokinesis, no deals with supernatural entities.  

Is it possible to run Jedi in a system which fundamentally says, "No, really, the Force does not and cannot exist"?

I suppose if one takes the Dark Side metaphorically, and runs, say, a game about professional athletes and the temptation to turn to illegal steroid use, there might be some shades of Jedi in that.



Cheers,

Paranoia?  Actually, that's probably not so hard, especially when you think about clones for a minute.

Kobolds Ate My Baby?

My Life With Master?

And, while not a suggestion, I just want to make people consider the possibilities for a fun Jedi campaign using Space 1889.
